Honda Accord 8th gen (CP/CS, North America) wheel fitment

The North American eighth-generation Accord came on 16, 17 or 18-inch wheels, with 18s reserved for the EX-L V6 coupe. Its factory offsets are high, at ET50 to ET55, so most aftermarket wheels sit further out than stock and owners pay close attention to offset when they lower the car.

5x114.3 bolt pattern · 64.1 mm centre bore · Stock wheels: 17 × 7.5, 16 × 6.5, 18 × 8 inch · Stock tyres: 225/50 R17, 215/60 R16, 235/45 R18

Width and offset guidance

Offset range

Check the exact setup

There is no confirmed range for this car yet. Compare a known wheel with your proposed size and measure both sides.

Common width limit

Measure before ordering

A maximum width has not been confirmed. Tyre shape, ride height and alignment all change the available space.

These figures belong to the setups described here. Combining the widest wheel with either end of the offset range does not guarantee a safe fit. For how ET moves the wheel in and out, read wheel offset explained; for how far the tyre can sit out, see flush, poke and tucked fitment.

Clearance notes

All North American eighth-generation Accords use 5x114.3 with a 64.1 mm centre bore and M12x1.5 wheel nuts, torqued to 108 Nm.
Factory offsets are ET50 to ET55. An aftermarket wheel at ET35 to ET45 sits 10 to 20 mm further out at the same width, which matters once the car is lowered.
The 18x8 ET55 coupe wheel with 235/45 R18 is within 2% of the diameter of the 17-inch tyre, so it is a straightforward upgrade for other trims.
Fitment databases also list a 19x8 ET55 wheel with 245/40 R19 for this generation. We have not confirmed which trims or accessory packages it covered.
We have not yet confirmed owner-documented aftermarket setups for this generation, so none are listed here.
Check full steering lock and suspension travel with the car loaded. Match wheel load rating, tyre load and speed ratings, fastener seats and brake clearance.
